RFC 2850 section 3.1:
3.1 IAB chair
The members of the IAB shall select one of its full members to serve as the chair of the IAB, with all of the duties and responsibilities normally associated with such a position. The term of the IAB chair shall be one year, with no restriction on renewal. The chair of the IAB may be removed at any time by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the members of the IAB, or as a result of his or her departure from the IAB.
The chair of the IAB shall have the authority to manage the activities and meetings of the IAB.
Seems reasonable enough to just adopt it wholesale. Creativity is not always good....
Makes sense to me.
